You and I would get kicked out of Alamo draft house after a few beers. It would be fun. We would be sure to do it at the location we don’t normally go to. Find a Galaga machine and waste 5 dollars playing it shitfaced.

Afterward we would go to a bike trail and tell stories about the middle aged men in tight yellow racing outfits, wondering if they will compete or if it’s purely compensating for the fact they never will.

You’d tell me I forgot to bring the coke and I’d tell you that we just buy it on the strip and you’d tell me you thought we were going downtown instead and I’d say then we don’t need the coke I already brought the blind pill. We would laugh. You’d still want the coke. I’d offer my last addy.

Start simple. Do you like long stories or short ones? (E.g. do you marathon tv or do you watch more one shot movies?) do you have attention span problems? What is your goal? Education? Entertainment? What are you’re politics generally? How are your faculties at critical thinking on both a macro and micro level? What are your hobbies?

There’s a lot that can go into a suggestion for a book, anon. I can’t really judge who you are by the fact that you haven’t read a book in a decade. I can extrapolate some facts, but not nearly enough. The wiki on the sticky had some beginner charts as well as some other areas of interest. I’m not going to make assumptions about you and I’m not going to make suggestions that will lead to other anons ripping apart this entire post just because one rec wasn’t as good as what the non-rec giver suggests.

I like it the best because each song is wonderful on it's own, consistently, but it also has the overall plot and theme which I think is really neat. Sure, some of his other albums have his one hit bangers on them, but ziggy is a thrill from start to finish with no down time.

I have actually.

Is it good? I'm kind of sceptic because I heard it was left unfinished.

Also I would recommend paths of glory if you haven't seen it yet.

>I'd like to read something that blurs the line between fact and fiction
I think you'd maybe enjoy something like Mario Bellatin's Shiki Nagaoka or Vila-Matas' Bartleby and Company. There are some other hispanic writers doing similar stuff but I think that's a good starting point

>I've barely read enough books to form my own conception of what constitutes good and bad, and what would be the point of telling you that I enjoyed the few books that I did read considering the only reason I read them was to further develop the foundation of my understanding of actual understanding?
>Attack of the clones, the only good star wars film. In fact, probably the only sincerely great film ever made.
>Gta v, and the other grand theft auto games, but it's the same as the shining for me. It seems like something is up with that game, something perfect about its world, like a proto civilizational wide illusory experience, but its probably shit.
>Albums are just another vain exercise. Its more like something that one can enjoy in a purely hedonistic circumstance like when your brain favors a dopamine rush but it doesn't really hold anything beyond that. Although music as a phenomenon is probably the highest form of art available.
